Step into a piece of musical history with the Fender Limited Edition California Vintage King 'Antigua' acoustic-electric guitar. Inspired by the groundbreaking designs of the early 1960s, this guitar is a tribute to the fearless innovation that defined Fender's acoustic legacy. Collaborating with legendary luthier Roger Rossmeisl, Leo Fender created a series of unique acoustic models that captured the essence of Southern California’s vibrant culture. Today’s California Vintage models honor this rich heritage while offering modern performance and an exceptional tonal experience.
The King Dreadnought body of the California Vintage King is crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid ovangkol back and sides, producing a robust, bass-rich sound with remarkable detail and projection. Its Performance X™ bracing pattern enhances its volume and sustain, while the ergonomic modern "V" neck profile, crafted from okoume, ensures a comfortable playing experience. The tilt-back 6-in-line headstock, adorned with a matching headcap, reflects Fender's iconic electric guitar DNA, merging retro aesthetics with contemporary playability. Additional features like the bound ovangkol fingerboard with pearloid block inlays, vintage-style tuning machines, and a bone nut and saddle highlight the guitar's classic appeal and superior harmonic character.
Designed for today’s performer, the California Vintage King is equipped with Fishman® Presys VT Plus electronics, which include an undersaddle piezo and internal body transducer. This preamp system ensures faithful reproduction of the guitar’s natural tone, whether plugged into an amplifier or recording device. The guitar comes with a vintage-style hardshell case, perfectly complementing its classic yet bold appearance. With its standout style, superior sound, and effortless playability, the Fender Limited Edition California Vintage King 'Antigua' is an exceptional choice for those looking to play something truly unique.
